We came across one of those videos that had to be shared with our readers, as it involves a 800HP Volkswagen Golf 3 GTI hitting a staggering top speed of 208 mph.

This tuned 1997 Volkswagen Golf 3 (Mk3) features a 3.0-litre VR6 engine that uses turbocharging to achieve this massive 800HP output, and as we already mentioned, the results were truly impressive as the 13 years old German hatch managed to reach a maximum speed of 208.1 mph on a drag strip.

The 800HP Volkswagen Golf 3 GTI was built by Dubsquared and T1 Race Development and is featured in this month issue of the eurotuner Magazine.
